The house is great! Secluded, perfect views, maintained well. Bryce the on site host helped with anything we needed and was very friendly and informative of activities and restaurants. June the owner helped with questions before the trip. We would totally recommend Spirit on the Water to anyone looking for a St Thomas experience without the total commercial/tourist feel.

Stunning getaway

My wife and I travel a lot and stay at very fine resorts but we have never had a stay as incredible as we had at this home. The view was the best we have ever experienced. We had a family of 12 and everyone had their best vacation ever. The island really pairs well with a VRBO stay. The owners and property manager were so helpful to ensure that our stay was the best possible. I really can't say enough about how much our entire family enjoyed our stay.

Best birthday ever

A group of 15 family and friends joined my husband and me in St. Thomas at this fantastic villa to celebrate my 70th birthday. Every couple had their own bedroom and bathroom. The common eating area was open air with lovely plants in abundance. Several indoor and outdoor seating areas provided ample opportunity for conversation as well as privacy. The manager lives on property and gave us a great tour of the villa upon arrival and was responsive when we ran out of propane during breakfast preparations one morning. My only concern was that the email with information about entering the property had names and phone numbers of people who no longer work there. The “guestbook” I received by text subsequently was very helpful and should be printed and made available for everyone to look at.Highly recommend!

Overall Good Stay

My family stayed at the villa for a week and overall had a very nice time. The rooms are what we expected based on the pictures - clean but furniture a little run down. The price was very high but we enjoyed the pool, quiet neighborhood and proximity to nice beaches. A few pieces of feedback:- We ran out of water during our stay - recommend making clear in the listing that guests will be expected to conserve water. - Property needs more lighting to get to the lower bedrooms - very dark in the evenings to return to the bedrooms and felt a little unsafe. - We felt rushed to leave on the last day, as cleaning crew arrived 2 hours before check-out and waited on-site for us to depart.

Perfect accommodations for our event

Our group consisted of 19 business partners. The villa provided several opportunities for meeting space in a variety of settings. The views are fantastic and the property is terrific. If we could make one improvement it would be to have better wi-fi service but this is a common challenge when traveling to unique private and secluded locations. We very much enjoyed our stay and hope to return.

TRUELY A GEM! Tranquil, Healing, & Pure JOY

WOW WOW WOW! WHERE do I even BEGIN? I am still in la-la land & I've been home for 4 days. Spirit On The Water is by far the most special place I have ever stayed with my family - My husband & son. We had the time of our lives in the Virgin Islands. We woke up, enjoyed SOTW & the gorgeous infinity pool. You feel as if you're floating cliffside, in a pool, but in the ocean. It's incredible! The villa was gorgeously decorated with so much uniqueness & love. The colors were happy, vibrant, & you can tell there are so many special memories in this place. I literally did not want to leave!!! We hopped around St. Thomas & St. John & the book of recommendations were so helpful! Diann & Chaz were so helpful & resourceful during our stay & I feel like I will stay in touch for life! We were able to ask them so many questions & contribute towards some of their additional services which helped us save time & enjoy our vacation versus going to the grocery. Tanner was incredible to work with in regards to getting all booked & my many questions. He acted with such urgency & was so accommodating. Everyone was just incredible & whomever is reading this review - PLEASE KNOW YOU ARE STAYING IN A ONE-OF-KIND place that is truly magical & irreplaceable. It has wonderful privacy where it's located as well as the home's layout. It is huge! The outdoor private shower that overlooks the water was one of my very favorites. The pictures are amazing but do not do it justice. We WILL BE BACK AGAIN! Thank you June & your team for having such love for us & for SOTW. My son think's he's a famous celebrity ;) AND my husband & I were able to take a step back from our career's & demands & enjoy simple beauty. TRUELY A GEM!

Amazing Babymoon with Friends

My wife and I brought a group of friends with us to Spirit on the Water (SOTW) for a much needed post-COVID vacation (we were all fortunate to be vaccinated early). We had an amazing time at SOTW. We had a smaller group (11ppl), so there was an enormous amount of unused space. If we could have brought more ppl, the price point would have been perfect. The place is as nice as the YouTube video looks (check it out on the listing if you haven't yet). The infinity pool overlooking the ocean is gorgeous. The large courtyard was a great dining area for our group, we only used 1 of the 2 long tables, so double the ppl would be easily supported. If you are going to stay for more than a few days (which I would recommend doing), you should rent cars instead of doing taxis. This place is a little off the beaten path (which adds to the charm), and renting cars made our excursions much more hassle-free. Amazing beaches and ferries to the other islands are a 20min drive away. The house is a perfect mix of nature and comfort. Each bedroom has its own AC which kept us plenty cool when we slept at night. Special shoutout to Niko who was an awesome host while we were there! Hit me up if you ever make your way to North Carolina!

This property was absolutely incredible. I can say for certain I have never stayed anywhere quite so beautiful as Spirit on the Water. The property is so spacious with room for every guest to spread out and have their own space but with a common area large enough for everyone to gather together. Further, Niko and Nick were incredibly helpful during our stay! We absolutely loved them and will absolutely be returning.

Best rental ever

I stayed with a group of friends and it was absolutely amazing. Even more magical than the pictures and video make it look. We all constantly stopped and looked at each other to say "I'm so happy right now!" It is a little isolated so having Nick and Nico around to help organize transportation was huge. There are other houses with amazing views, but I don't think there are any options that have such an expansive panorama without another manmade structure in sight.
